This remote volunteering experience is a wonderful opportunity for learning and skill acquisition that everyone should have the chance to experience!

It is with great sadness that I share the news that Barbara Byrne, a professor emeritus of our School, passed away December 19th 2020. We would like to express our deepest condolences to her friends and family. Please read Barbara’s obituary as well as a tribute written by our colleague Richard Clément below.

The Honourable Navdeep Bains, Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry (ISED), announced today in a press release the creation and renewal of 260 new Canada Research Chairs.

"Mental health has never been far from my mind during this pandemic."

"Going virtual can be tough when you are working with a small organization."

"As someone who is very passionate about research, it is a rewarding experience to see that the staff at NAFSO are able to use my research and apply it in their work to promote human rights and sustainable development in Sri Lanka."

Learning to be flexible and adaptable was also very important.

"Every day was a different page in a chapter and it is totally worth making it to the end of the book."

The Covid-19 has certainly counted many deaths throughout the world but has also accelerated, popularized and created certain opportunities among others the distance internship.

"I am very grateful for this experience and highly recommend it to any student who is interested in the fields of governance and development."
